Who are we?
Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities on campus, including 200+ societies, 40+ sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives.
What’s the job?
LSE Students’ Union has one of the largest and best offerings of student clubs and societies (including RAG and the media groups) in London, which shapes and impacts on almost every student’s experience of LSE. The post-holder for this role will support with student leaders in this space, specifically in relation to the LSESU Student Campus Relations Group, whose purpose is to is to foster collaboration among student leaders from various backgrounds and groups, enabling them to contribute to shaping the university’s approach to campus relations. The group is committed to incorporating the student voice into discussions about the principles and operational goals of LSE’s campus relations, ensuring that policies and strategies reflect the diverse perspectives and needs of the student body. The person in this role will attend LSE SU Student Campus Relations meetings, lead the implementation of agreed actions arising from those meetings, and oversee and monitor Campus Relations Fund projects – providing guidance, tracking progress, and supporting student applicants in delivering impactful initiatives.
